For example, several studies have previously reported inconsistent results regarding the prognostic impact of different oncogenic pathways in GC - the prognostic implications of proliferation-related antigens such as Ki-67 in GC are not firmly established [29], and high NF-κB activation in GC has been associated with both good and bad GC patient outcome in different studies [7],[30]. Here, MKI67 is linked to gastric cancer.
